The way this mechanic talks makes me trust him instantly.
Thank you for not buying a new 105.
Thank you for purposely getting into trouble.
Thank you for diagnosing it, stripping it, explaining it so that greenhorn like me can watch and learn.
Thank you for taking out the motor
This is the best series youve ever made, a high bar made higher. Paul is a phenomenal communicator
For anyone doing up an older vehicle, this info is going to be pure gold. Wish I had seen something as good as this before we bought our old 60.
if he would have had someone check it out for him before he got there, it wouldn't have happened in the first place. Same with you and your 60 I bet
A 20 yr old cruiser is an "older vehicle" 😂 tell that to my daily driver fj40
@@jordannash153 well there is older and ancient :)
Paul Master Teacher 5 stars
I love seeing your ‘genuine’ reactions to what all is going on. I think we all get a little overwhelmed with big projects but most people try to hide it and play it off cool. Thank you for being real with us. I look forward to the next video.
The legendary 1HZ engine. I found out they still produce these for land cruisers sold in Africa, Sth america and parts of Asia.
You can get them new in Australia, as just the long motor (Block, cylinders and Head). Mining company's buy them for their fleet vehicles.
Nothing beats a straight six, unstressed diesel for taking abuse!
That's really interesting
very interesting. I like how Paul clearly explains the pros and cons of keeping or changing out different parts. He's rather professorial in his manner. Thanks for including us in your build.
Having rebuilt a 95 defender 110, I'd say the bill for this was colossal!!!
Great series! Paul just seems so full of common sense, patience and knowledge.
Thank you for agreeing to show us the cost for a rebuild like this. It would be great to include the “retail cost” of the labor as well to get a true feeling of how much to spend.
Great series!
I'm watching this in slight envy with all those new parts being thrown into that car while contemplating to sell our family's 2005 Prado 120 with 5VZFE (Japan import, bought it used btw) coz the parts are just becoming more & more expensive to get over here in this part of the world(Malaysia). Already spent a fortune replacing the standard electronic dampers & rear airbag suspension + pump, new tyres, reupholstered the cracking dashboard, freaking leaky AC & the rear ac control panel which had to be imported from Japan no less, brakes & god knows what else there is to fix still. Sometimes even a 'very reliable' car can start to become economically unviable when you need to fix things & the parts aren't easily available where you live.
So far this has been my favourite episode of the series. So often on videos people just talk things over. I really like how Paul Marsh has taken out the engine and stripped things to show exactly where the wear and tear happens etc. Thanks Paul, Andrew and Joubert. Great series!!!
Really glad to hear you plan to summarise costs etc - cause the obvious question is ‘what’s it cost to buy a 20yr old vehicle, with 300,000k’s, and have it turned into a reliable over lander vs buying new and doing some mods’. Very excited about your future vids. Simon (Australia)
I did similar to engine overhauling to my LC100 . If you look at the original price of purchasing the latest model if LC you ganna pay almost to 65k $ , however, it is high cost compare it with the innovation an old series ... spend some funds on renovating the existing ones and drive it for the next 10 years
Paul is right when mentioning chasis is no. 1 priority when buying used car. It's my priority too since I can repair almost every moving parts that broke down or need replacement because of wear n tear as long replacement are available. I hate when it comes for chasis repairing because in most cases it involve painting and surface threatment.
Good old 1HZ, i've rebuilt one. Solid motor runs like a big strong slow steady draught horse.
I watch these videos with interest having been involved in the service and repairs of Toyota Landcruiser over most of my life
I note this is a 300k 1hz that has been opened possibly more that once. You mention replacing the timing belt and idler
but not the bolt that holds the idler. I have seen these fail multiple times due to incorrect tensioning hence destroying the engine.
Do you replace these????
Excellent! Paul is more articulate, precise and helpful in his explanations than 70% of US doctors! The man is wicked smart and could have been anything he chose, he chose mechanics and South Africa is better for it!!
So exciting to see a new beast emerge.... I can personally attest to the fact that these are such an honest comfortable and reliable vehicle...
Andrew after this thing gets running the way you want please do a overland trip with it! We need a overland series with this Land Cruiser!
Really enjoying this. It's almost exactly the same work I carried/carrying out on my Old Willys wagon. Taught me more about 4x4 vehicles than I ever knew. The Willys is 60 years old and these vehicles in essence haven't changed much at all. Great content thanks for sharing it Andrew.
Love this,so interesting seeing the component wear and tear on an older vehicle like this and watching the rebuild,reaching out to a whole new fan base Andrew
My 20 year old son gives me the same amount of grief. Probably costs the same as well.
Love the detailed breakdown from Paul ! Do it right if you can afford it no doubt.
Andrew this is only possible for somebody who really wants to take a vehicle back to life in South Africa. I own a 1hz in Australia. If I wanted to do a job like the one you are doing the bill would be 25k$ in parts plus labor. Easy. Thanks to both of you for the outstanding content. All 1hz owners will be grateful.
Hi Pasquale. Why do you say that 1HZ owners should be grateful? I am wanting to purchase a 70 series and I am trying to do my research beforehand. Thanks mate
I bought a 91 Land Cruiser I named Nigel from a Marine Lt in 29 Palms Ca who was being transferred it had 200k gave him 3 K US. Brought it back to Vegas NV changed all hoses clamps fluids. Replaced radiator and Main Seal tube up new battery and my Desert Camping Dog hauler was born. Not lifted not perfect paint but no rust everything works and I’m 71 and we both needed each other. Love this truck. Former owner of a 07 FJ Cruiser that was too small for my Daughter and Chocolate Lab!!!
What a great series, thanks for making this Andrew!
Good luck with the build ASPW. I just purchased an '03 100 Series w/190k miles and have found rear main leak and coolant leak to the tune of about $4k. Otherwise was garage-kept pristine and I love it! Hoping for many adventuring miles. Cheers
Man... you got the life...I know you've worked you ass off all your life to get to do this and good on you.And thanks for taking time to do video's like this, it's better than TV. Enjoy and live the dream.
Im learning so much from this sreies.thank you!!!
Amazing episode!! Few months ago bought a 22 year old Toyota 90 so changing part by part. These episodes come very helpful when in a doubt on what to do on the car. Saw many similar issues on mine so some of these are probably common for that old Toyota's. ;)
A great project Andrew, well done to you and the team for the great media coverage
Enjoying this new series Andrew & nice to see Paul making regular appearances!
One thing I hate about used vehicles is every time you want to replace a part, you discover something...
Same! Worst part about it. Let's just quickly change this....oh and this.....shit this is broken as well
@@JS-tb9hu And while we're in there/have it open/have it out.........
Thats the best part
@@MrTech-fu3wb Gotta pull the motor out of a v8 twin turbo land rover to access the turbos lol
Recently bought a 300 Years old axe and replaced the head and handle.. Love my 300 years old axe 😜
You are very fortunate you have a knowledgeable and friendly team on your side. More often than not you do not know who you are dealing with, and whether they go that extra yard to ensure a good job that translates to reliability and longevity.
More very useful information here Andrew. Thank you & the lads for explaining things so thoroughly.
Nothing beats getting home from a long days work and being able to relax to the sound of Paul and Andrew!
By far the best source of education for Over Landing i've found on the Interweb ..... EXPERIENCE, EXPERIENCE, EXPERIENCE ..... you guys have enlightened me.
"Is this typical?"
Yes. My USA 100 has been through about the same replacement schedule
And here I am thinking the LC runs 'forever' with only the bare minimum in maintenance. This video ties in with the fleet of cruisers we use.
All depends on how you drive, especially for a clutch. You say your fleet, company trucks get some of the worse abuse because "its not theirs".. otherwise mainly the drive train should last hundreds of thousands of kilometres without a issue. Unlike German or US stuff.
I would advise painting the engine . It makes it easy to trace leaks and it looks good.
Or you could use Liqui Moly (Moly Gen) oil which looks like blood from the Hulk haha. It has a bright green fluorescence and they sell it with a UV light.
We paint blocks Chev orange or White for this exact reason. Only a good idea if you are a good builder - I don't want my customers to miss a leak , leaks are failures.
What paint do you use?
No offence Andrew but I could listen to Paul all day long. Such an intelligent man when it comes to the mechanics of a 4wd
no offence taken. This is not a competition. Paul is extremely knowledgable, and that is why I seek his opinion on so many things 4wd.
4xoverland spot on mate, good luck with the rest of the build and can’t wait to see your adventures
A nice 19 minute add for terrain tamer. But I am quite jealous how deep you dug into your 105. My fix up 100 is still a pile but it does function
Love this series Andrew
Wish this videos came out every day. Amazing information, amazing video. Thanks from Nicaragua. Hilux owner!
I've always used the half inch/13mm deflection for fan belt tension, but Paul's method of a 90 degree twist is much easier. This series is becoming my weekly "soap".
My Gosh I'm loving this range of Vlogs! Excellent Andrew :)
Snyman 4x4 is the best! I took my 80 series to them and they did a great job
As a certified mechanic and i do it everyday for a living, i will tell you Andrew, there doing you a great job! he knows what he is doing and he is doing it well...looks great!!!
Very interesting series, thank you
Thank you detail video on your rebuild love Toyota
Best to check the big end bearings and check oil clearance they are prone to running big end bearings also valve wear closes the tappets common issues. Might aswell check injectors aswell. If the vehicle has done alot of km's will get very costly quick
Great info as always guys looking forward to the next instalment 😎🇦🇺
Thanks Andrew!
This is a very interesting video. Learning alot definitely watching the series.
Buying a used vehicle is always a gamble but it looks like you have a solid base to build on. Best of luck on the rest of the build Andrew. Looking forward to the rest of the build.
Thumbs up Paul 👍 , much prefer to work on the engine out of the vehicle than in it , no bending over guards ect while standing on milk crates lol . Good build so far Andrew wish I could send my old cruiser to Paul , does he do body work as well ?
Always expect the unexpected with a second hand vehicle .
seems like the mechanic you want, very
thorough
Great video thank you!
please post this series more frequently andrew
Really good series Andrew, love the detail you are putting into this and nice to see a build with an old car (not all of us can afford brand new cruisers!)
Keep it up, really REALLY enjoying each video.
👍This is great!
Ok Andrew, so according to comments. When you rebuild a truck, just show the before and after.. And if youre sponsored, only change what you need to. Because thats what everyone whomownsva 4x4 does, only add what they actually need, to their trucks.
Not really a surprise. You can do the rear main as you prob need to remove caps to replace main bearing caps and access timing belt easier and core plugs rear of engine etc
Since out. Andrew replace all main and big ends and headgasket aswell as pistons and rings. Why not. Your motor will then be at zero
This's epic in the history of overlanding modification, like a hell of a drug! Modificamphetamine!!😲😵

first 1HZ I've ever heard of with a plastic tappet cover.
the cast aluminum ones do do what he describes though
Standard from factory since approx. 2014
I've since looked it up and it is indeed a thing. 11201-17020 vs 11201-17010 for the metal one
Not many land cruisers came with 1HZs at that stage (and none since 2007 in Australia)
My 1HZ from 1999 had it also. The first valve adjustment was a surprise.... (HZJ73, original Netherlands)
Paul is a very talented man
Wise man that who is repairing the LC. 👍
Interestung video guys great work
Not a Cruiser owner. Do like this model and the ser. 80. Nevertheless the wisdom/logic flowing from Paul is invaluable. Good job and great project.
good video on the way to look at things
Nice detailed description :) i like when mechanics do it with passion :) Dude must open a youtube Vlog :)
Watching all this and also dealing with all these components with my own vehicle just makes me long even more for range worthy electric 4x4 vehicles. Combustion technology is so dirty and seems so stubbornly out dated and overly complex; so many points of weakness and failure. I long for a day when you can head off in an electric vehicle with amazing torque, low maintenance, range and huge power supply. It's coming and I can't wait to see the end of this combustion era. For now though, I have to live with my dirty high maintenance diesel 🙄 I believe we will look back on these videos and shake our heads at how much of a pain in the ass combustion technology was.
Excellent!
Thorough....Andrew do a Northern Pakistan trip.The scenery will amaze you!
I would like if you could give us costs, what did you pay for the Cruiser, and how much are you spending on the refurbishment.
I went to an english car club meeting in Vancouver where I was asked if I could help with a BMC Mini re-wire. He had completely removed the wiring and this was years before wireless hotspot.
This is going to be a deliciously good 105 Series when complete. Thumbs up Andrew 👍
If I could suggest and it may be belated... why wouldn’t you change to a slight up-spec camshaft? The new one far outperform the original cams... better economy and performance... especially if you’re considering to tow. At any rate, liking the series.
Very very interested in😎🌟👍🏼
I'm not a mechanic nor am I very clued up as a casual DIY fixit yourself guy. I do however like the thought of an overland vehicle, and I would want to look at a series 80, or now that you are working on the 105 that. What is the estimated cost of a top to bottom fix like this?
Hey Andrew. Would have a newer 100 series with a fte engine or a 200 have been an easier, and more cost and time effective experience?
That looks like a TJM snorkel? Thinking of one for my 4Runner here in the US. Any thoughts on the angle of the air intake over the windshield with rain? Love the design of this snorkel.
Getting to the point you might as well hand them your credit card and sat go ya hardest lads. All this money and you’ll still be doing 90 flat out into a light head wind lol it’ll be a fine car though
Give us more ..!!
Paul is interestingly very systematic in approach, so this build will be better than the Toyota build.
So cool
Did I spy a venter trailer in the corner of Paul's garage during the opening intro ??
Grande Paul
I own a 1996 Land Cruiser that I bought brand new 25 years ago. I’ve decided to give it a new life perhaps new engine & a new suspension keep the rest classic as it is. Any suggestions on how I can make this happen?
Boy!! Did he see you coming ! All of that work that didn't need doing, as he clearly states time and time again. Come in spinner...
South Africa is the only country I know that has a lock on the refrigerator.... and when they say 'tomorrow' they mean next week.. hahahahaha. Great memories
You’re not familiar with the usual intended meaning of the Spanish “manana”, then!
In fairness to you, manana tends to mean never, not next week...
Is there a list of project costs to date somewhere? With all this work and all these parts I'm beginning to wonder how close we are to the cost of a newer slightly used series 200 Land Cruiser.
project costs will be published here in a few weeks time: 4xoverland.com/africa-hero-truck-build
Freewheel hubs are great, if you break a CV you can turn them to free (and in your case remove front driveshaft) and keep driving without ruining everything.
Why do you not understand this? They also look like good quality Aisin freewheel hubs at a glance.
The 50/50 glycol distilled water is a uitstekende idea, wil probeer dit
That's a very standard dilution used in nearly every vehicle in the United States. It will protect your engine from freezing down to -40° and is full of anti corrosion additives that keep your engine from corroding inside out.
@@cr4zyj4ck here in Northern Australia and Botswana its a new thing to me and a few of us as we usually only get to -5 in winter, and then we know its cold as our diesel separates
After 20 years of working it is normal on almost any vehicle that you are going to need to change and renew parts, and in some cases you'll change a part and a short while after you have to change another part or more parts, normal wear I call that, not a thing is build to last forever
You can always go cheaper if your just running around town but if you intend on traveling vast distances in remote areas where your life might be in danger you spend the extra money and get everything fixed properly with no exceptions.
Da freut sich die Werkstatt …. $$$$$$$$ 🤣
Love your stuff, keep em coming.
